sDecision 81 Inter state Commits
sion.

The following ii q finding 81 the inter.
state commerce commission upon the
complaintSof the boards of trade union of
Farming ton, Northfield, Farlbault and
sOWatonna Mimi, against the Chicago,
Milwaukee s. ST. Paul Railway company.
The fact that the rate of wheat
son the; Iowa & minnesota division is doub.
lie the rate enjoyed by neigh boring towns
on the other divis ion works practically to
their disad vantage and prejudice. In
complaint OF miIlers and Others of the
Iowa & Minnesota division OF unjust dis
elimination it is held that the complaint
is well founded. The rate on wheat on that
division is relatively too high. While q
reasonable differential rate may be allow
ed on that division on account OF greater
distance and probable larger expense of
transportation and the greater stringency
of the competitive forces on the Riv-
ser division, the difference above
the present rate on the River division
should not exceed two and halt cents q
hundred It is not sufficient compliance
with the law that rates are reasonable in
themselves. but they should be SO rela-
lively reasonable as to protect commune
ties and business against unjust discrimi-
nation. When the same carrier operates
parallel lines and for an cause accepts low
rates on one line, it should furnish suffi-
Gent corresponding advantages to the
patrons OF the other line to prevent undue
prejudice and disadvantage and to pre-
serve the substantial equality contem.
plated by the statute.

Death OF JENNY Lind.

Jenny Lind (Madame Goldschmidt), tile
celebrated Swedish singer, who had been
seriously i'll for some weeks, died on the
End inst, in London.
Jenny Lind, who has universally been
known as the Swedish Nightingale : was
born in Stockholm. When she was vet
only three years old to sing was her ruling
passion-every melody that struck her ear
was retained with an accuracy which
caused general admiration.
She was placed under the care Of Eras-
mus Berg. a profound and skillfu! musician.
After studying under him for several years
the Stockholm public was astonished one
night at the appearance OF a child in a
vaudeville performance. This was Jenny
Lind, who at once became q favorite.
When in Paris Jenny met Meyerbeer, the
celebrated composer, and two years later
he invited her to join the opera in Berlin,
and in 1914 she went to the Prnssian cap
ital and afterwards to all the European
capitals.
& In 1910 p. T. Barnum, the well known
Snowman, conceived the idea OF bringing
her to this country. After considerable
negotiation he agreed to pay Miss Lind the
then astonishing price OF 81, 600 each for
$50 concerts. he to have the option of
closing the engagement after $50 had been
given. The gross receipts Of the concerts
were $712,l61. of which Miss Lind received
a$176,975, and Mr.. Barnum S535, 486.
After her marriage she. with her husband.
returned to Europe. They lived in Ores
den Tor some time, and in 1856 returned to
London.

Settlers on Indemnify Lands.

Washington Special: Regarding the
matter of ind emnity lands and the appli-
cation OF the law OF 1887 to them. Score
tarv Lamar says:
There is a question as to this applica-
ton, and / have submitted the law to the
attorney general for an opinion as to
whether the right TO purchase lands ac-
quired from railroads applies to indemnity
Withdrawals. In the meantime I have
directed the commissioner of the gener al
land office in my order giving force to
these revocations OF withdrawals, to
have lists of all selected railroad
indemnity lands placed in the local Of
fees, SO that registers and receivers may
draw the attention Of applicants for FL
ings that their tracts are covered by rail-
road claims and may possibly be other
wise occupied. suppose this order has
been carried out. Ii it has, settlers on
Northern Pacific lands have some noti6ca-
ton and should be forearmed.
The secretary declined. until he had re-
ceived an opinion from the attorney gener-
al on the law, to make known his view,
but it is believed that he takes the view
that the law OF 1887 was intended to COW
er indemnity lands, thus giving purchasers
from the road the right to purchase from
the government.

Deadly Shooting at Eau Claire.

Eau Claire Special: A quarrel between
Edward Richardson Of st. Paul and Frank
Hanson, proprietor OF the Galloway house,
Thursday night the Sd, resulted in the
shooting OF Richardson, who died at
1890, and Hanson may die. The quarrel
occurred in the corridor OF the hotel. No
one saw the parties when the shots were
fired. The men had been talking in a
friendly manner in the hotel office, and
Hanson had offered Richardson cigar.
Richardson went into the corridor, and
Hanson a few moments after followed in
response to call. Several shots were
then heard, and Hanson staggered out
with ball in the abdomen. Richar ison
had received two balls-one in the head be-
hind the right ear and the other in the
region of the heart. Richardson remained
totally unconscious. Hanson could
speak, but would say moth.
ing as to the circumstances.
Two years ago Richardson, who was for
merly steward in the Galloway house, was
divorced from his wife. Hanson married
her and took charge OF the nine year-old
daughter Of Richardson. The latter had
long been trying to get the custody of the
child and it is supposed came here with
that object. A travelling man who was in
the hotel office few feet from the corridor
said he thought Richardson had shot
Hanson and then shot himself Some say
three shots only were tired and others say
four or five.

As TO Village Assessments.

Attorney General Capp has rendered an
opinion affecting village assessments, and
holds that under recent decision OF the
supreme court, property OF villages, ex-
cept as to road purposes. should be as
sessed as part OF the town property, pro-
vided that the village has not been made
q separate election district under the cleo
tiOn law of last winter. The decision is as
follows:
Under the recent decision Of the supreme
court OF this state, villages Incorporated
under the general laws and which have
not, by action Of the town board Of SUI
pervisors. under the provisions OF the gem
eral election law OF last winter, been
made separate election districts are not
separate election districts for village pur-
poses. In view OF this construction of the
law and in the absence OF any statutory
provision taking the village out and apart
from the town, except for road purposes,
I am inclined to think that the SUI
preme court would hold that the
property OF the village, except
as to road purposes, shall be
assessed as part of the town property;
that is, at least. except in cases where UNI
der the provisions of the election law Of
last winter, the village may have been
MADE by the town board a separate cleo
tion district. am not prepared to say
what the effect of such action would be-
but in the absence of that action I am
quite firmly of the opinion that villages
incorporated under the general law OF this
state, except as to road matters, should
be assessed as q part OF the town.

Samuel Blatchford, one of the Asso.
ciate Justices Of the Supreme Court
of the United States, is about so years
of age, and before his appointment
was one of the most prominent jnrists
in the city and State Of New York.
AS a judge in the courts of that city,
many very important suits were
brought before him and his decisions
were always characterized by a con-
ciseness and clearness as learned as
they were comprehensive. He was
appointed to the position he now holds
by President Arthur, March %, 1882.
The Top OF Washington Monument.
The construction of a suitable apex
called forth much discussion and a
number of plans. 1t was first suggest
ed to roof over the structure with a
framework of iron and glass, but it
was thought that the chemical action
of the weather on the metal would dis
color the face of the walls. The de-
sign for a marble pyramidion fifty five
feet in height, submitted by Bernard
r. Green, civil engineer, was finally
adopted. Twelve stone ribs foot
thick, three on each side Of the walls,
40 feet from the base. AS these are
carried upward, the ribs nearest the
angle Of the shaft meet in the hips Of
the pyramidion, while those in the
center of each face are connected still
higher up by voussior stones, forming
two arches inter5ecting each other at
right angles. The thrustof each corner
rib is transmitted to its opposite by the
use of horizontal stones between their
upper extremities. The buttresses sup
port the roof covering of marble slabs,
about seven inches thick. The cap
stone is tipped with an aluminium
pyramid, which is connected by cop
per roody with four lightning rods
passing to the upper extremities Of the
iron columns of the elevator shaft, and
the bottoms of these columns are
| grounded in the well in the center OF
the foundation. Oscar Foote, IN
